1. Power Supply Configuration:
   • The W25Q128FV operates with a supply voltage ($ V_{CC} $) typically at 3.3V.
   • Connect U1:VCC to a 3.3V power source.
   • As you've already connected U1:EP and U1:GND, ensure that your GND is also connected to the common ground of your circuit.
2. Data Communication:
   • This flash memory communicates over SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface). For a minimal SPI connection, you would typically use the ~CS (Chip Select), CLK (Clock), D0 (Data Out/MISO), and D1 (Data In/MOSI) pins.
   • Assuming you have a microcontroller or another SPI master device in your system (let's designator it as MCU):
     • Connect U1:~CS to a GPIO pin on your MCU designated for SPI CS. (e.g., MCU:CS)
     • Connect U1:CLK to the SPI Clock pin on your MCU. (e.g., MCU:SCK)
     • Connect U1:D0 (MISO - Master In Slave Out) to the corresponding MISO pin on your MCU. (e.g., MCU:MISO)
     • Connect U1:D1 (MOSI - Master Out Slave In) to the corresponding MOSI pin on your MCU. (e.g., MCU:MOSI)
3. Optional Pins:
   • U1:WP (Write Protect) and U1:HOLD can be tied to the VCC if not used. This configuration disables their functionality and allows normal operation of the memory chip.
     • Connect U1:WP to VCC.
     • Connect U1:HOLD to VCC.
4. Decoupling Capacitor:
   • It is standard practice to add a decoupling capacitor close to the VCC pin of the chip to filter out noise.
   • Add a capacitor (let's call it C1) of about 0.1μF between U1:VCC and GND.

• You have a 3.3V power source and a common ground in your design.
• A microcontroller or SPI master is present in your system for communication. The specific connections to this MCU are generalized as an example.
• You are not utilizing the WP (Write Protect) and HOLD features actively in your design.
